ZZR? oh yeah, they are lovely bikes indeed. I think I can find one cheap on Trademe. I'll think about it when I get the claim lol

A cruiser? Hmmm...

I was thinking more along the lines of a VTR/Spada/Zeal upgrade (something which can actually get to a 100 on the flat = upgrade.). What about a ninja 250 for your next bike? Thats a bike you should be able to lean quite a bit :P

Overall: Zeal is powerful. 14,000rpm/ 4 cylinder is awesome!
It handles great, the bike is bit heavier but I could move it like the Scorpio (For a second I felt back at home). the pegs are low hence comfortable riding position.
However, those low pegs seems to be too low... (maybe not)

The Zeal brought me back the Horror. Sorry Zeal, you are not for me

Thinking to buy: ZZR250

If you liked everything else about the zeal you have to try a hornet and an impulse.

The pegs are nice and high, so they don't get in the way of the road.
